Danish noise-pop duo The Raveonettes released their sixth album, Observator last week. Recorded in just three weeks, the album was inspired by Sune Rose Wagner’s travels along Los Angeles’ Venice Beach, and the people he met there.

It sounded like an interesting way to gain inspiration for an album, so we got to thinking: Why not hear about the album’s writing and recording process from Wagner himself? Below, listen to Wagner discussing just that on the Rdio-only Commentary Version of Observator.
